Very good subject! Perhaps it's better suited for a non-pedal harpsichord, as I can imagine it being almost impossible to play on the pedals

Nice piece. I think the best scoring for this would be Flute as the Soprano, Violin as the Alto, Viola as the Tenor, and Cello or Basso continuo as the Bass. I feel like the woodwind doubling with the strings does not add much to the alto or tenor lines.

Hand stretch would be an issue for playing this on an actual harpsichord . . . but I think it might actually be doable with only slightly mutant hands if you had a pedal harpsichord (rare, but they do exist) -- if you can get the tenths by hand, the pedals can be used to fill in the bass.

I enjoyed listening to this! The 'turn' motif you used is very effective and helps Ground the fortspinnung passage work. For my taste(or lack there of) I thought you could have used a stronger coda perhaps halting the motion with a fully diminished chord under a Fermata. Then going further, using that turn motiv to bring some more drama to the fugue's conclusion.

Not particularly. Beyond the overarching stylistic imprint Bach's music has left on my music, I don't think I could really point towards any further distinctively noticeable influences on my works. Inevitably, perhaps, certain subconsciously added details beyond my direct recognition and acknowledgement might seep in from the music of all other classical composers I admire, though at the end of the day I still prefer to think my works are at least slightly original in their conception.

Thank you for your kind words, even though, just as I have replied many times before to this kind of appreciation, to imply I could ever come the slightiest bit closer to the unsurmountable genius of Bach's unparalleled musical prowess than plenty other remowned classical composers already have is quite a massive overstatement. Worry not, however, for quitting at this point, or anytime soon for that matter, is not an option I deem even worth contemplating. Betraying my love and reverence for Bach's music, no matter how feeble and lacking my homage may be, is not a path I intend to ever tread as long as I remain of sound mind.

Exceptional work as always! The harmonies and modulations here are stunning but far too complex for me to grasp but the comment by 'Robotron' explaining it is very cool! For me personally though, I prefer choral works that set only one text at a time, not two simultaneously because hearing the proper articulation of the text(s) is far harder.
@FugaxContrapunctus
@FugaxContrapunctus 3 ай бұрын
@@joshuamusic02 I hesitate to even tell you, but the texts in my motets and chorales are short of mere placeholders. Perhaps contrary to the norm, here the text is fully in service to the music, and not the other way around, as usual otherwise. Therefore, the main priority for these compositions is not to showcase plain exercises on proper textual articulation, as that would require a higher degree of homophony than I would ever intend my works to partake in. Instead, the multiple texts involved act as a vehicle through which the unique character of each voice is reinforced through the musical idiosyncracies of the melodies at hand: it is the intervals, rhythms, durations, and motivic accentuation of each line that end up conditioning the text I may choose for it, and not the lyrics in question determining the texture and overall qualities of the piece from the very start, as would be viceversa. In short, the intelligibility of the text is simply not among my top priorities, and its inclusion herein is merely "instrumental" in nature, if you will: purely a tool by which my counterpoint can be put to song, nothing more. Since you have commented similar remarks on almost all of my vocal works thus far, I no longer have a choice but to declare that I don't intend to change my current compositional methods on this regard anytime soon. Thus, now provided with a greater understanding thereof, perhaps it is time for you to come to terms with that. Naturally I, as the composer, have minimal control, if any at all, over how my art is perceived and interpreted by my audience. Nevertheless, I figured out perhaps a brief clarification was needed here.

that modulation makes my think about a modulation mozart did at the end of his confutatis
@FugaxContrapunctus
@FugaxContrapunctus 3 ай бұрын
Indeed, although that chain of enharmonic modulations in quick succession with German augmented 6th chords as dominant seventh pivots at the end of his Requiem's Confutatis are a purer, more conventional version of their type, taught almost as a standalone method for quick modulations onto distant keys. Conversely, in this case, I used minor seventh chords as the enharmonic pivot leading to major seventh chords in the resulting key (with a few disonant suspensions to avoid parallel perfect fifths during the transition), thus changing the tonal centre by a distance of a tritone, which then modulates into the region of its own subdominant, that is, a semitone below the initial key. In short, it achieves the same outcome as the aforementioned type of enharmonic modulations, just with one extra step.

so mozart was in A minor then goes in A diminished 7 with the 5 in the bass so VII/V and instead of using it as a predominant for V but instead of resolving it he make the bass note the new home key and reesolves the diminished chord as Ebdim - Eb7 and as a last thing he resolved the Eb7 to Ab minor, while you in the first modulation are going from ii dim to V/V that is the enharmonic equivalent of G german 6+ which act as a predominant for F#7 to then successfully modulate a triton away B min then you stay a little bit in b minor before modulating to E minor. Is that right? Very clever, have you ever tought of using neapolitan chords as pivit chords? i wish more people composed music like this.

@@Robotron-wd9em Your analysis, as far as I can tell, is thoroughly correct. As for modulations employing pivot neapolitan chords, I recall having seen them mentioned in certain 19th-century common practice harmony treatises, though I cannot quite remember having ever used them. Thank you kindly for the idea, I shall take note of this for future compositions.
